    First Post- Looking for Scope recommendations- LMT 13.5" 308 Battle Rifle

    I set up this KAC SR25 14.5" ACC with the old school Leupold Mk4 1.1-8X CQBSS scope; does well out to 600 meters; offset RMR zero @ 50 meters. I find shooting beyond 600 meters with 8X scope difficult, especially with an heat mirage.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Anybody have an estimate of the value of this sweet 16?

    The 2-9/16" chambering was standard for 16 ga. until 1929, when SAAMI changed the standard length to 2-3/4". Yours was mfg. in 1968. Round knob stocks are considered more desirable to collect than flat knobs. Gunbroker is a good place to see similar examples. I have these two examples, 1957...

    9 mm pistol suppressor on 9mm carbine

    I use this AAC for Glocks and Wilson Combat AR9G (glock mags) SBR. The fixed spacer installed when the barrel is fixed, replaces the piston spring.

    Sig 226 advice

    I have 5300 rnds thru the Blackwater, ~ 10% supressed. Quiet is always more enjoyable. How about the Sig-rig for optic & light in the day. Needed to us a bulky canvas LBT London Bridge Trading holster. Grip modules and slide optic cut-outs were not options.

    Sig 226 advice

    The classic P-series P226 are pretty good platforms. Negatives, big grip circumference with a long trigger reach for many, and DA/SA take a bit of getting used to just like the Beretta 92M / F series. I like the P229 better, in particular the lesser known P229C (compact) which is the full...

    RRS accessory hole?

    There's a gazillion options. Amazon has them for less than $20. Flexible goose-neck devices, standard 1/4"-20 tpi threads. From 10 years ago with early carbon fiber tripods.

    Gunsmithing Stuck 8.6 Blk case AR10

    Spitballing here. If I have followed the thread correctly, you have separated the upper-lower halves and your photo seems to show the free end of the firing pin retaining pin exposed on the right side of the bolt. Perhaps removing the firing pin to allow the cam pin to move as freely as it can...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Stubborn RMR screws

    6-40 gunsmith screws are common place, just not for red dot optic mounting applications. Phillips head fasteners are just behind hex head in being inadequately designed for the task.

    When you remove the hex head style, replace the fasteners with Torx style. These Grab-iT extractors are the best. Simple cordless drill in reverse mode. You don't want to use heat or excessive impact on the fasteners with the optic electronics.
